SUMMARY:SBC Speaks Arabic
DESCRIPTION:This very special event is hosted by our SBC Ambassador\, Elsa Sarkis. This is message is directly from her: \nSBC SPEAKS ARABIC is for Arab and Arabic-speaking business owners\, storytellers\, innovators\, entrepreneurs\, and thought leaders who want to get closer to their Arabic – and actually use it to connect\, collaborate\, and do business. \nWe live in the UAE. Arabic here isn’t “just a language.” It’s identity\, culture\, belonging\, and trust. And if you’re building something in this region\, it makes sense to be able to express yourself in Arabic with confidence and precision. \nThat’s why the next step was obvious: take the SBC networking model – the one that’s already proven to create real opportunities – and curate it for an Arabic community that values learning\, growth\, and high-quality relationships. \nIf you’ve been thinking:\n“I can speak Arabic… but I don’t express myself the way I want.”\n“I want Arabic to feel natural again.”\n“I want to build real relationships in Arabic\, not just small talk.”\nYou’re in the right room. \nThis is a small group (under 16 pax) on purpose. You’ll meet everyone. You’ll be seen. You’ll have time to build real opportunities. \nAnd no—this is not “spray and pray” networking.\nWe use the DEEP DIVE format\, so the session is structured\, focused\, and actually useful. \nCome build your Arabic business circle. Come meet people with standards. Come leave with real next steps. \nAsentiv and SBC VIP: Use your special discount code when registering. \nBook Now

SUMMARY:SBC Australia Zoom Networking with the UAE and the UK (5pm- 6pm Brisbane Time)
DESCRIPTION:5pm to 6pm Brisbane Time (11am -12pm Dubai Time) \nFor Australian Business Leaders Who Know Relationships Drive Growth \nIf you’re doing business in Australia\, you already understand one thing — sustainable growth comes from strong networks\, trusted relationships\, and the right conversations at the right time. \nThe challenge?

Connect efficiently with business leaders from your city — and across Australia — without losing half your day to travel. \nAnd importantly… \nSBC is part Aussie-owned\, bringing a strong understanding of the Australian business culture while operating with a truly international outlook. \nBut there’s another strategic advantage. \nThis call is currently FREE of charge and you will can input code SBCAustraliaFREE \nBook Now

SUMMARY:Asentiv PRO- Advanced Client Aquisition
DESCRIPTION:“Asentiv PRO is the accelerator for entrepreneurs who don’t want to chase every deal\, but want the right deals — through relationships\, referrals\, and strategic alliances. If you’re ready to stop working hard for every client and instead build a network that brings you the best-fit clients almost automatically\, this is it. You’ll join a mastermind of peers\, sharpen your positioning\, refine your message\, and build your referral engine — while doing business in your values\, with your community\, with impact.” \nClients work directly with Phil Bedford in collaborative focused sessions. \n“At the end of December 2009 our business was on the point of going bust. Today\, after attending courses with Asentiv things have completely turned around. We have just closed a deal worth 250\,000aed and have two hotels about to sign and I haven’t even finished my training yet!”  Jan Curtis Owner Bare Essentials \n“For a founder trying to establish herself in a new country\, that has been remarkable. I still continue to learn something new from Phil every week. Not just about networking\, but about patience\, positioning\, trust\, visibility and the importance of building a business rooted in genuine relationships. Looking back\, signing up to Asentiv was one of the most important business decisions I made in Dubai. It did not just help me win clients.  It helped me find my footing in a market I was still learning how to navigate. It gave me the confidence\, structure and community I needed at a time when I could very easily have given up and gone home. For any founder or business owner entering the UAE market\, especially if you are used to doing business somewhere else\, my biggest lesson is this:Do not underestimate how important your network is here. And do not mistake networking for showing up in rooms. The real work is learning how to build trust\, create value\, earn referrals\, and become known for something specific.That is exactly what Phil\, and Asentiv helped me do”. -Laura Hockley The Aly Collective \n“Phil Bedford of Asentiv has been influential in the past year and half over the evolution of MoneyLine Family Office as a business and me personally. When I first met him\, I was dubious of the Asentiv courses\, assuming that I took many seminars about prospecting and referrals while attending the Million Dollar Round Table annually in the United States. Today after talking the Asentiv PRO twice within the past 18 months\, I can safely say that my Referral Strategy has shifted 180 degrees\, and I was wrong about my earlier assumption of my knowledge about the subject. The key point in Asentiv PRO Program has provided me with the fundamentals of the Referral Strategy and the philosophy which stands at the core of it. I wished I did Asentiv PRO 5 years ago; it would have saved me a lot of hassle and accelerated my growth dramatically”- Karim Ghandour Owner Money Line Group \n  \nBook Now

SUMMARY:Referral Pipeline - Take Action workshop
DESCRIPTION:We all talk about wanting more referrals ( or hot leads)\, but what if we could make them happen? \nThis session is different to any other because the intention is to actually make referrals happen for each other. \nTo make this work you attend with a partner. Which means you are willing to refer each other and make it happen.  Ideally\, therefore you and your partner are already at this relationship level. \nTestimonials \n13 Referrals done video \n“Having been through the Pipeline course I now regard it as an essential tool for anyone wishing to grow their business or defy poor economic conditions. Not only is the course logical and concise but it is also innovative and comprehensive in the way it neatly blends the concept of leveraging personal relationships in a highly positive manner with behavioural styles. The results bear witness to the power of Pipeline. In the three months since completing the course I have brought in US$150\,000 worth of leads together with a single Referral Partner. What is particularly satisfying is that this is predominantly business which no amount of advertising or door-knocking would have uncovered. Better yet is that the quality of leads makes doing business this way a pleasure. Pipeline’s emphasis on qualifying referrals and establishing credibility in a structured way builds trust with potential clients in the shortest possible time. This works in both directions; since doing the course I have also done business through Pipeline participants who are able to refer service providers to me. I know that they understand what I need and I know I can trust them. It goes without saying that I now look to increasingly rely upon business sourced through Pipeline techniques. Who would not want to realise substantial additional revenue of better quality and in less time than using traditional sales and marketing methods? My goal is to have 30% of my business generated through Pipeline Referrals within 12 months. In other words new business which otherwise I would never have found will make up nearly a third of next years sales! \nColin Davidson \nRGM Sigma Engineering \n“In total we identified Dhs 93\,000 worth of potential business for me and well over Dhs 100\,000 for my partner\, and that is taking into consideration our closing ratios.  \nI already have Dhs 15\,000 confirmed business (that’s 500% ROI! as my half of the course cost Dhs 2\,999!) from the potential business identified and my partner is working on more… \nIf other business owners realised the true value of this course\, you would have to hold it in a football stadium! \nKeep up the good work! \nKind regards\,” \nCORRINA CROSS \nI just wanted to thank you for a great ‘Referral Pipeline’ workshop last week. It was my first time attending this as part of the Referrals for Life program and I now can’t wait for the next one. \n“I attended with another member of my BNI group who I’ve known for over a year and while we both share the same target market and our service offerings have clear synergies\, we were struggling to focus on a strategy to identify opportunities where we could refer business and potentially even work together. The Referral Pipeline and your facilitation provided us with the tools\, direction and focus we needed and as a result I ended the day with 5 new business opportunities that we are now working towards closing\, with a potential value of approximately AED750\,000p/a and another 28 in the pipeline. \nIt really is a powerful session and it has motivated us to plan two further sessions to stratergise on other opportunities. \nThanks and Warm Regards” \nAnnette Fernandes\nClient Services Director \nBook Now
